Experience with Honda City or Chevy Cruze?

[hannstew]

We are looking to trade our car for a new model and are stuck undecidable between a Honda City and Chevy Cruze. Has anyone had any experience with either one, pros and cons?

I read recently that the Honda City is now being produced in Buenos AIres Province. Not a recommendation or negative. Other than that , I cannot provide further info.

I don't own either but the family had a Honda on the US that ran forever and ever. And I do have some friends with Honda's here and they love them and say the same thing. Easy to repair, long-lasting. However, double check whether the City comes with dual airbags. I have heard that Honda's crumple pretty easily in an accident (and I will say that when my mom had a fender bender, it did a lot more damage than I would have thought).

Don't know anything about the Chevy.

Be aware that even if the model is supposedly the same, the cars aren't identical to their US or European counterparts. So when you read reviews etc, try to find Argentine based opinions. If you can read Spanish, there are a lot of car forums that give reviews or list common problems... of course that can muddy the waters a bit since everyone has an opinion and people hardly agree.

Sorry I don't have any experience with either car.

I have driven Honda City abroad.

It worked for 4 years with no problems.
